OPENING PRAYER

Miracle Working God, the Great Physician, the One who never refers a case, the One who makes a Way where People think that there is no Way; we Worship You – Accept our Worship in Jesus Name.

Thank You once again for January, Thank You for February, Thank You for March, Thank You for April, Thank You for May, Thank You for June, Thank You for July, Thank You for August, Thank You for September, Thank You for October and Thank You for November – Father, accept our Worship in Jesus Name.

Today, we are crying to You Specifically for all the Medical Practioners – From the highest to the least.

By Your Very Special Anointing, from today onwards; anyone who come in Contact with any of these People ever, if they are Appointed unto Death, let the Appointment be Cancelled.

Let their hands becomes Healing Hands and let their Hands become Miracle Hands.

And Lord God Almighty, as these People will be taking care of Others, take care of them.

That Proverb that says: “Physician heal thyself”; don’t let it ever be applied to these People.

DMC NOTES: “Physician heal thyself” simply means: “Physician, save your own Reputation by Proving to us that what you say is true”.

Take care of them, take care of their families and let it be well with them.

In all their Hospitals and Places of work; beginning from today, on a regular basis, let there be only Shouts of Joy.

And my Father and my God, I am committing all Your Children who has been Faithful in the Payment of their Tithes and in the Giving of their Offerings into Your Hands; this Particular Month of November, Surprise them, Embarrass them with Your Blessings.

That kind of Blessings that they will say: Lord, this is becoming “Too Much”; Father give unto them!

And I commit all Your Children who are here today and all those listening to me all over the world, Inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC into Your Hands.

Another Year is comimg:

☆ Every evil left in the Old Year, keep it away from them all.

☆ All the Blessings remaining this Year, bring it to their homes.

Let it be well with all of us and help us to serve you till the end.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

Well, let Somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!!!

Shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People and tell them: Whether the devil likes it or not; I’m going to see you in the New Year – Amen!

Today I have been asked to speak on “Divine Wings” by the order of the Pastor In Charge here – He is the one who tells me what to Preach.

And you know that he is a Proffesor – That’s why he keeps on bringing Topics that are big.

Many times when I look at the Topic, I say: Oga, I’m an Ordinary Pastor o; this is Professorial.

He asked me to speak on: “DIVINE WINGS“.

Isaiah 40: 28-31:

28. Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the Everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the Earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his Understanding. 
29. He giveth Power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth Strength. 
30. Even the Youths shall faint and be weary, and the Young Men shall utterly fall: 
31. But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their Strength; they shall mount up with wings as Eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Progress in Life is made as long as you don’t Stand Still.

Of course, when I say, “As long as you don’t Stand Still”; I’m not talking of turning on your bed.

Because when you are turning on your bed, you are Moving but you are not going anywhere.

1. Even if you are Crawling, as long as you Stand Still; you make Progress.

If you don’t believe me – If it is Possible for a Child to talk, the day the Child discovered that he can crawl, Oh that Child will want to Celebrate.

Because suddenly, the Child discovered that I am free from this Mama (Meaning Mother) who is always sitting me down in one corner. And then, I will be looking at a lot of beautiful things that I can’t go to them. But now, I can move.

What do we mean by Crawling?

Crawling means making Progress very Slowly.

In Numbers 14: 33-34; the children of Israel travelled on a Journey that should have taken them forty days in forty years – That is Crawling.

Another word used for Crawling is Slothfulness – And God hates it.

God does not want you to crawl – Everything that He said about Slothfulness is not very Good at all.

Proverbs 18:9, He says that the Slothful in the world – The one who crawls in his daily activities; is a brother to a Great Waster.

In Proverbs 19:15; He calls the Slothful Someone; whether he likes it or not, is going to suffer hunger.

In Proverbs 6: 9-11; He says that if you are Slothful, you are going to end up in Poverty.

… So, you don’t want to be a Crawler!

2. But there is a way to move faster than that – And that is Walking.

And that is making Progress Steadily.

You will discovered that, that Child who started by Crawling, very soon the Child will begin to hold on to the Table to Stand.

Something in that Child tells him – Hey, there is a better way of going from one Place to another. And very soon, he begins to take the first step.

And the Child begins to walk – He will take Step 1 and Step 2 and then falls down.

When a Child falls down when he is learning to walk, the Child never cries – Watch them!

It doesn’t matter how many times he falls, he kept on Laughing – Hey, I’m getting there. Things are getting better.

And the Almighty God even recommends Walking – Infact, majority of People walked.

In Genesis 17:1; He said to Abraham: Walk thou before me and be thou Perfect.

In Proverbs 13:20; the Bible tells us that even Wise People walk – It says that if you walk with Wise People, you will become Wise.

So Walking is Good – As a matter of fact that is what many People believed to be the Best Exercise. They even said that it is better than Jogging.

I don’t know whether the Medical People here will agree or not – But the day that I learnt that Walking is better than Jogging, I said Thank God because some of us are too Old to jog but we can still walk.

3. But there is still something faster than Walking – And that is Running.

Because when you are Running, you make Progress not just Steadily but Rapidly.

In 1 Samuel 17: 45-51; the Bible says that David ran to battle.

The Word of God says that you should run with your Vision.

David ran to battle because he wanted to get to Goliath quickly so that he can kill this Goliath, cut off his head because he has been told that the Man who killed this Giant is going to become the In-Law of the King.

So he said: Is that so? Then I am going to get my Rewards quickly – He ran!

… So Running is a better or faster way of getting to your Goal than Walking.

4. But better than Runnimg is Flying – Which is where we are going.

The Shortest Distance between two Points is a Straight Line – At least we learnt that one in Secondary School.

That is why Flying is so Wonderful because you don’t have to dodge obstacles, you don’t have to turn corners, you don’t have to see a Mountain and dig through or find a way round it – You just fly above it.

But then for a Man, God didn’t give us Wings – He gave Wings to those who are supposed to fly.

But by the Grace of God, He has made arrangements that you could be carried.

The day they discovered the Aeroplane – And it was a Great Discovery.

There is a Place now you can enter into – They will sit you down, shut the door on you and give you food. And before you know what is happening, you have arrived where you are going to.

I am Praying for Someone here today or reading now on the Label of DMC – The Journey to the Goal God had Set for you will be made short (Amen).

And God said in Exodus 19:4 – He said to the Children of Israel that I brought you to Myself on Eagles’ Wings.

This is a very interesting Statement because if you asked the Scientists, they will tell you that when they are Planning to build something that can fly, they Studied the Eagle.

Look at an Aeroplane and look at the wings; it is like that of the Eagle.

God says that I have Wings that can carry you and move you very fast.

Take for Example David in 1 Samuel 16: 1-13.

When God said that He needed a new King and sent His Prophet to the House of Jesse. And the Prophet got there and saw some big boys there and said this is the King; God said No.

Another one, God said No; until the 7th one and God still said No.

So, the Man of God turned to the father and said: Are these all your Children?

The father said No, there is still one remaining but he is not fit to be a King – Check again.

The Almighty God said to the Man of God – That one is the one I am looking for.

And they brought the fellow that they said does not qualify and he became a King.

Why? God carried him.

The Man of God said that we are not sitting down until you bring him – This is an urgent matter.

I know that there is Someone here today or reading now on the Label of DMC that no one knows that you can become anything. But the God that I serve is going to pick you up and carry you over all Oppositions – Amen!

It wasn’t by Voting – If it was by Voting, David will never have won. Even his father won’t have voted for him. But God carried him.

The Bible tells us that the Almighty God can pick up a Beggar from the dunghill and keep carrying him until he begins him to sit among Kings.

When God carries you, there is Nobody who can stop you.

There are many birds in the air but there is a Limit to how far they can go.

When the Almighty God is carrying you in His Aeroplane, Clouds will make a way, Rain will make a way and all your Opponents will not even know until you have arrived.

God carried David and before you knew it, even in 1 Samuel 22: 1-2; his brothers who never thought that he can become anything, the Bible says that when trouble came and David went to the Cave called Adullam. Even all the brothers came to him and he became Captain over them.

Because once God has decided to carry you; you just keep on going.

And the beauty about God carrying you is that God never gets tired.

If it is Human Being that has been Praising you so that you feel important; one day the same People who has been shouting Hossanna will turn round and say: Crucify him.

There is one Song in Yoruba that they sing – Oniduro mi (The One who Stands with Me)

DMC NOOTES: FULL LYRICS OF THE SONG:

Oniduro mi (The One who Stands with Me)
E seun o (Thank You)
Agbejo ro mi (My Advocate)
E ma seun o (Thank You)
B’oje eniyan lo duro mi (If its a Person who stands for me)
Won a ti ma soro (They will be talking about it)
B’oje eniyan lo duro mi (If its a Person who stands for me)
Won a to s’alo (They could get tired and leave)
B’oje eniyan lo duro mi (If its a Person who stands for me)
Won a ti ma s’iregun (They may keep talking about it)
OniDuro mi (The One who Stands with Me)
E seun O (Thank You)

Ki’se Mi’mo Se (It is not because i know what to do)
Ki’se Agbara mi (It’s not because i have any Power)
Ki’ise Titobi mi o (It’s not because I am Great)
L’ese damisi Baba (That you have Preserved my Life O God)

Because if it is Human Beings that are carrying you, one day, they will drop you.

But when God is carrying you, the Bible tells me that His Arms are Everlasting – He just keep on taking you Higher and Higher and Higher.

That’s why I’m telling you to stop Praying against your Enemies – Just Pray that God will have Mercy on them!

Because if God is carrying you, anybody who is opposing you or speaking evil against you; they are just wasting their time – As you just keep on Soaring!

Remember that the One who is carrying you is the One who said in His Words – Thou Preparest a Table before me, where? In the Presence of mine Enemies.

You should be Prayiing for your Enemies – Ask God to be Merciful unto them.

Don’t ask God to kill them – If God kills them, who will be around to watch you when you are enjoying?

You will want them to be around to see your Glory!

And I’m telling you that if God is carrying you; He will move you from Glory to Glory!

When People are envious of you and they begin to say all manners of evil about you; don’t let that bothered you – You have to be Great to be envied.

So, I Pray that you shall be envied – Amen!

One beautiful thing about travelling in a Plane:

Those of you who has never travelled in a Plane, your day is comimg – Amen

Let me be bold and say: One day, you will buy your own Jet – Amen.

When God is the One carrying you, He will take you to a Place you never dreamt Possible!

Let me tell you a Story:

We went to one Africa Country and I said that I want to see the President – Just a Courtesy Call.

And some People say: No, he won’t see you. Well, why don’t you just ask him?

Then they came back and said that he has agreed to see you but for just 15 Minutes – Ha, that’s good enough.

And then i got there – With little Introduction and we sat down and began to talk.

After 2 hours – And when the President is talking, you don’t interrupt. But the crowd were waiting at the Stadium – Your Excellency, your People are waiting at the Stadium?

He said: Let them wait. He said that they have People they can talk to but I don’t have.

I don’t know who is my friend and who is Pretending to be my friend only because of what they can get.

He said but I have heard about you – Let me talk to you now that you are here.

Almost 5 hours later, he released me and even saw me to the car.

On our way, I said to my wife: Who am I?

☆ Who is the son of Adeboye?

☆ Who is the son of this Man who was so Poor that Poor People call him Poor!

☆ Who is the son of this Man who came from a Village that is not even on the Map of Nigeria?

☆ And here now, the President won’t even allow me to go.

Because there is Somebody who can pick up a Beggar from the dunghill and continue to carry him higher and higher and higher.

I will see you at the Top – Amen!

Let me Conclude: God is able to carry you because He has Divine Wings.

But the Question is: “Who will He carry”?

1. The Elders (Traditiinal Rulers) will tell a Yoruba Adage that says: “It is a Child who lifts up his hands that will be carried”.

You want to carry a Child? And the Child says: Leave me alone. Then you will say: Baby, stay on the Ground.

You want Him to carry you? You have to lift up your hands in Surrender!

That’s why the Bible says in Psalms 37:5 – Commit your ways unto the Lord; trust also in Him and He will bring it to Pass.

Surrender all to Him – Lift your hands and say: “I Surrender”.

I have told you that I was a Boxer before – Before the day of Competition, you will be boasting. You will say don’t mind him, I will knock him out in two rounds. And the other one will say that I will be waiting for you, I will knock off your head.

And then, the time to fight comes – The two of you in the ring. The Judge rings the bell and all your Supporters starts Cheering

Now, you find yourself face-to-face with the fellow that you say you will knock out in two rounds.

And before you know it, he has hit you on the head – And you didn’t see that coming.

And before you know it, you hit the Ground – Ha, Ha!

After some time, you said that Wisdom is better than Strength o – This Man is about to kill me. The dog that runs today will leave to fight tomorrow.

And you raise your two hands – Saying: “I Surrender”.

From that moment onwards, he dares not touch you.

When you Surrender to the Almighty God, the devil will not dare touch you!

It is in the Bible – Submit yourself unto God, then you can resist the devil and the devil will flee.

The reason why many of us are Crawling is because we are carrying a Burden too heavy for us.

When you have a “Heavy Burden” to carry, you can’t even walk.

But there is Somebody who is called the Burden Bearer – He is the One with Wings: When He carries you, He carries your Burden for you.

When you enter the Plane, all your Burdens – Infact the heavy ones are already loaded away and the smaller ones are also hidden somewhere.

And then you sit down and begin to enjoy and fly!

2. And then He says: Trust in Him.

You know that the Problem with many of us on why we are not flying is because when God speaks, we don’t even believe Him.

When I say to you for instance that all my children will be Greater than I? Some of you don’t even believe.

One of my children looked at me and said: Daddy, how is that going to be Possible? I said what do you mean?

He said we know how many days you Fast in the Year. Any of us who wants to be Greater than you will almost Fast himself to death.

I said don’t remove God from the Equation – You don’t need to know how He will do it.

I have told you before and I am telling you now – Your brain is too small to understand God.

Whether you believed it or not, it will take you 1,000 years to Study all there is to know about Mathematics.

I can only boast about my PhD in Mathematics when I’m talking to People who don’t know anything about Mathematics.

When I am in the Presence of Fellow Mathematicians, they will say:

☆ Okay, what area of Mathematics? Oh I say Applied Mathematics.

☆ Okay, what Part of Apllied Mathematics? I will say: Hydrodynamics!

☆ What Part of Hydrodynamics? Oh well 3-Dimensional Motion.

☆ Whatt aspect of 3-Dimensional Motion? Navier-Stoke Equation.

By the time I tell you where I got the PhD from, you will see that I am only Specialised in a Pin out of Mathematics

And now, you want to use that little brain to Understand Somebody who knows all Mathematics, all Physics, all Chemistry, all Biology.

Who are you compared to the Almighty?

When He decides to carry you, why not just relax and let Him do the Carrying!

I will tell you one more Story and then we Close:

The Story happened here on December 31st one year

And the Word of God just came that there is Somebody here who is having difficulty Paying his House Rent; in the New Year, you will be a Landlord.

Only a one Fellow said Amen that Night because Humanly speaking, how is that going to happen in Lagos? He was a Messengee and he hasn’t Paid his Rent.

The New Year came, he reported in his Place of work and greeted his Chairman – Happy New Year sir.

That one looked at him – Hey Messenger, have I given you a Christmas Present? No sir; have I given you a New Year Present? No sit,

He said okay, Lagos State Government was selling some houses, I bidded for one and I won and I don’t need it. Come and take the keys.

How can that happened if not by God?

The boy took the keys and Address – He was thinking that it will be just one little One-Bedroom flat but he got there and saw a Storey Building.

Can this be true?

But he put the keys on the door and turned it and the door opened.

He went through the house: Upstairs and Downstairs – Is this true?

The following day, he didn’t just Prostrate to greet the Chairman, he rolled to the right and left.

And the Chairman said: Hey, by the way, is there any Furniture in the house? The boy said No sir.

He said that I Change my Furniture every Christmas; I don’t even know where to put the ones of Last Year.

He called one of the Drivers – Please go and load my Furniture, take it to this boy’s house.

When we are talking about God, stop thinking how will He do it!

He has Wings:

☆ When He carries you, He carries your Burden.

☆ When He carries you, you become a Wonder.

So, how many of you will want to Surrender to Him Completely? The DMC Family Members!

ALTAR CALL

So, if there is anyone of you will want to Surrender to Him Completely or who is yet to be Born Again, you are delaying your Journey.

Come and Surrender your Life to Jesus Christ and let Him begin your Journey to Destiny.

I am going to count from one (1) to five (5) – If you are not sure of your Salvation, run forward now and come and Surrender to Jesus Christ.

I’m Counting!

Those of you who are infront and those on the way, talk to Jesus Christ:

Ask Him to be Merciful unto you, ask Him to save your Soul, tell Him that you are Surrendering to Him Completely.

Ask Him to become your Lord and your Saviour.

Promise Him that from now on, you will Serve Him Completely.

Go ahead and talk to the Lord!

And the rest of us, Please let’s Stretch your hands towards these Brethren and Intercede for them:

Pray that the One who saved your Souls will save their own Souls also.

My Father and my God, I want to Thank You for Your Words.

I want to bless Your Name for this Wonderful People that has responded to the Altar Call.

Please Lord, receive them, save their Souls, let Your Blood wash away their sins, receive them into the Family of God and let them become True Children of the Living God.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

Well, I believed that today is the Day for Someone!

If it is your Day, get on your feet and shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

I am going to Pray for you first and then you will Pray for yourself.

FINAL CLOSING PRAYER

My Father and my God, I want to Thank You for these Wonderful People.

Thank You because I know that You are the Burden Bearer.

I am asking Lord that from now on, You will bear their Burdens.

And whenever they cry to You Father, You will answer them by Fire.

Many of them has been Crawling, many are Walking, few are Running.

But from now on, I Pray that You will begin to carry them.

Very, very soon, take them to the Top.

And when they get there, let them remain Connected to You so that even before this Month ends, they will be Sharing Mighty Testimonies.

Thank You Almighty God.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!

Now, I want you to lift your Voice to the Almighty God and say: “Father, Please carry me”.

Go ahead and talk to the Almighty God!!!
